The
joule
is the
SI
unit of
energy
,
work
, and
heat
. One
newton
of
force
acting
along one
metre
of
displacement
does one
joule
of
work
. The relation
1
J
=
1
N
m
makes mechanical and electrical transfers comparable in the same
energy
unit.

A
joule
(
symbol
:
J
) is the unit of
energy
in the International
System of Units
(SI). It is defined
as
the amount of
energy
transferred when one newton of
force
is applied over
a
distance
of one
meter
.
